# FLAC++/metadata.h: metadata level 1 interface
[FLAC++/metadata.h: metadata interfaces]

## Detailed Description

Level 1 metadata iterator.

The flow through the iterator in the C++ layer is similar to the C layer:

- Create a SimpleIterator instance
- Check SimpleIterator::is_valid()
- Call SimpleIterator::init() and check the return
- Traverse and/or edit. Edits are written to file immediately.
- Destroy the SimpleIterator instance

The ownership of pointers in the C++ layer follows that in the C layer, i.e.

- The objects returned by get_block() are yours to modify, but changes are not reflected in the FLAC file until you call set_block(). The objects are also yours to delete; they are not automatically deleted when passed to set_block() or insert_block_after().

See the C layer equivalent for more.
